Handle that fits a bridge slot

Post by Dave Bagwill » Thu Sep 03, 2015 3:39 pm

Saw this on ebay - just a simple tool (easy diy out of wood) to save the fingers when doming the underside of the bridge on sandpaper taped to the top. Of course, it fits into the saddle slot.

Necessary? Nah. But a simple project.
